Gantsilyo in Global Entrepreneurship Week at Miriam College

I got invited by the Society of Junior Entrepreneurs of Miriam College to give a small talk in a forum on entrepreneurship. It took place last November 18. I was surprised by the invitation, to be honest, because I've only been in business for less than a year. Part of me wanted to also share my experience so far so that my audience can be "inspired" to be young entrepreneurs.

I told them my crochet story and how I got here from being a corporate gal.

I was so nervous before going in front of the students. It's like presenting and being graded for something in front of your class and teachers :p Surprisingly, the nerves left when I started to talk.

There were other speakers as well. A short Q & A portion took place after all the talks.

Halllooo! I'm Gantsilyo Guru!

"Gantsilyo" is a Filipino word taken from the Spanish word "ganchillo," which means "crochet."

I'm a crocheter from the Philippines! I've been crocheting since high school. My very first crochet project was in home economics class. It was a 3-D christmas tree. Our teacher didn't want to accept my project because she couldn't believe I made it. Since then, I've been hooked!
